Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II Hinge Pin Stop Fits All 3"" to 4-1/2"" Residential Hinges (Satin Nickel)

I loosely work in the commercial door sphere and I rarely get involved in residential doors, but I installed this in my house and it is truly unique and quite functional. While it does not create a super hard stop (like a wall stop), and may not work in all conditions… where aesthetics and simply designed practicality meet… this easy to install hinge stop is brilliant. Never ceases to amaze me simple products that are still different than the standard and look like it almost isn’t there! Super creative and very minimal.

As a homeowner who takes security seriously, I recently purchased the Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II Hinge Pin Stop in the Satin Nickel finish. With its promise to fit all 3" to 4-1/2" residential hinges, I was eager to secure my doors and provide an extra layer of protection for my family. However, after using this product extensively, I regretfully award it a measly 1 out of 5 stars. First and foremost, the installation process was a major letdown. The package came with vague instructions that lacked crucial details. As a result, I found myself struggling to properly position and secure the hinge pin stop. The lack of clear guidance made the process frustrating and time-consuming. If the manufacturer had provided clearer instructions or even an installation video, it would have been immensely helpful. Moreover, the quality of the Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II left much to be desired. The Satin Nickel finish, which initially seemed elegant, started to chip and peel off after only a few weeks of use. This not only compromised the overall appearance of my door but also raised concerns about the product's durability. I expected better craftsmanship, especially considering the price I paid for it. Unfortunately, the functionality of the hinge pin stop was equally disappointing. While it claimed to fit all 3" to 4-1/2" residential hinges, it failed to do so effectively. The stop would often slip out of place, rendering it useless. Even when I managed to position it correctly, it didn't securely hold the door in place. On numerous occasions, a gentle push was all it took for the door to break free from the hinge pin stop's grip. This compromised the entire purpose of the product and left me questioning its effectiveness. In terms of security, the Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II fell short of expectations. I had hoped it would provide an additional layer of protection against forced entry. However, it proved to be an ineffective deterrent. I could easily see how someone with ill intentions could overcome the hinge pin stop without much effort. Its lack of reliability and durability made me doubt its ability to withstand any significant force. Furthermore, the customer support from Nuk3y was extremely disappointing. After experiencing multiple issues with the product, I reached out to their support team for assistance. However, their response was slow and unhelpful. It took several attempts to even get a response, and when I finally did, it was a generic and uninformative reply. The lack of proactive customer service and unwillingness to address my concerns left a sour taste in my mouth. In conclusion, the Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II Hinge Pin Stop in Satin Nickel was a disappointing purchase. The vague installation instructions, poor quality and finish, ineffective functionality, and lackluster customer support contributed to my dissatisfaction with this product. It failed to live up to its promises and did not provide the security and peace of mind I was seeking. I cannot recommend the Nuk3y Door Saver 2 II and strongly advise potential buyers to explore alternative options for securing their doors.

These work great, easy install with lots of adjustability. Only need a flathead screwdriver to get it installed, and you’ll never even know they’re there!

I had a deep doorjamb and nothing I found would stop the door from hitting it when opened. Most door stops would not fit. This worked but I don't completely trust it- if someone pushed hard enough, this would not completely stop it. I can see this working in some situations but I need something stronger. Neat idea.

These door pins are designed to stop the swing of the door, so you no longer need those annoying spring things on the baseboards, you know the ones, the ones you always hit with the vacuum cleaner or step on when moving furniture in a room. You replace the top or middle door pin, drop one of these pins in its place and use the controlling arm to adjust the door swing. The problem I had was, on some doors I was able to get the perfect adjustment, and the doors worked perfectly. On the majority of the room "entry doors I could not get them to adjust close enough to the wall without hitting (see pictures). These pins have a splined main shaft and a matching spline on the control arm, the problem is that the splines are too big, if they used smaller but deeper splines there would be more refined adjustments. So for now, back to the old standard, my clients will just have to wait until I find a better solution

I built a custom record cabinet for our vinyl collection. I also have two young kids who tend to fling doors open forcefully. I got this Hinge Pin to set where the door will stop so that it keeps my custom furniture safe. It was very easy to install. I used a small/narrow screwdriver and hammer to remove the previous hinge pin and then hammered this into place and then adjusted the stopper while testing the door. Installing the hinge pin scraped a little of the white paint off the door trim, which I'll retouch soon. Very happy with this solution as it's virtually hidden / not noticeable by guests and very sleek/not bulky. It does have a slight creak to it as the hinge stopper pushes against the wood frame. I normally use vaseline to fix squeaky hinges, but I don't think it's the solution here. I'll play around with it later if it bothers me overtime.

I just installed this onto a door that my son had ripped a hole into with the standard "Pin-type door stop." He ruined the door with one and snapped a second -- and I had 2 installed BECAUSE of how he does things. This was a 2-minute install and a 5-minute adjustment. It literally uses the plates of the door hinge to act as the door stop, turning the plates into de-facto leaf springs as it gets to the stop point. The only thing I would suggest is to double- and triple-check the swing allowance. Doing a few test runs to make sure that it works properly is a GREAT idea!

I ordered 4 of these in an attempt to try this out. I'm a locksmith and this idea appeals to me greatly. However, my first order arrived and the packaging was EMPTY. I submitted a refund asking for a replacement. The replacement AGAIN was an EMPTY bag! So I just asked for a refund. Amazon has not truly read any of my emails or details elaborating on my returns and has continued to charge me for these. I finally bought two at a time hoping it would actually get to me. They did! I attempted to install one on a 4.5" hinge and the pin just isn't big enough. It might fit on a residential hinge. The screw is a #1 Phillips and of course the screw is such soft metal it's impossible to tighten without stripping it. So if you have a door that will only ever experience the equivalent force of a blind geriatric house cat and you don't what the knob to hit the wall, this product is for you! Anything above that....PASS!

Sadly, though my hinges are 3", the pin is too wide to be used in the hinges.

This does not fit any hinge in my house, nor can i source a hinge with a 1/4" diameter pin. Shame because it would have been a good solution.

Funciona perfectamente

Our front door kept banging into the closet doors even with the small, adjustable stoppers that fit on the hinge pin. The hinge pin would rise so that the stopper was floppy and didn't work. I installed one of these units and no more banging into the closet doors. I recommend it!!

I would not recommend, product doesn’t work as advertised and private seller doesn’t provide return postage so the refund works out to $4, all this did is bent my door hinges
